First I started with two coats of black liquid leather from China glaze. Just simple black cream background color.
Then I added thin coat of OPI red shatter and this is the final resoult.
Quick and easy to do manicure. I can't wait to try this red shatter with different color combinations.. Any suggestions?

Nail polish haulin'- Essence, Manhattan, NfuOH, Opi, Orly
I did a bit of shopping and this polishes I added to my collection. First, let's start with Nfu.OH most wanted and desired :-) #51. All nail polish adicts must know this one and I had to have it also :-) This one has all the colors of the rainbow (well, almost:-) ) flakes in them. It has a purple- blue base color and in them you can find green, yellow, red and orange flakes. I don't have to tell you that it has a flake finish, right :-) ?

I thought this would be perfect base color for the Nfu.OH 51 and it's from Manhattan Limited edition LOTUS EFFECT #13. Deep blue, almost royal blue color that I just fell in love with.
Next one from the same edition (also Manhattan) is #16 and it's greyih dusty color with cream finish. I love the formula of these two and the brush, that is perfect for three strokes application and it doesn't leave any marks. I just hate gorgeous polishes that have a such a bad brush that totally ruin the polish.
Next one is from Orly COFFIE BREAK. And it really reminds me of coffie with added milk, grey natural color. Also with cream finish.
This one is from Essence Multi dimension XXXL shine MAKES ME WEEK. Very natural peachy nude color with a cream finish, more appropriate for school/job... and great base color for KONADing for example!

- ORLY Coffie break
- ESSENCE Makes me week
- MANHATTAN #16

And here is one from my wish list that I wanted since I got Black shatter, this one is RED SHATTER ofcourse :-) Can't wait to try this one!!!!
Wich one is your favorite of the bunch?

OPI Jade is the new black
As some of you wished to see a swatch for this one, so here it is :) It is truly an amazing color, forest green one. It has a cream finish, but unfortunately it's not very opaque, so I had to apply two coats.
The formula is a bit too runny for my taste, but I can handle it :-) The color makes worth it all :-) I like the brush very much and I don't know, but something is about OPI bottles that I adore :-)
Do you like it?

Comparison between SINFULCOLORS- Innocent and OPI- Who the Shrek are you?
I have another interesting comparison for you and as you see from the title above, it's between OPI and SINFUL COLORS. OPI as the more expensive version of polish and SINFUL COLORS as much more afordable polish.
First you can see Innocent from Sinful- this is my first time wearing it and I already like it a lot. Here you can see one coat and it's full on coveredge. The brush is good, easy to use and the formula is a bit on thicker side, but I like that, because of the full coveredge. The brush doesn't leave any marks behing, the polish is not bubbly or anything. ALL GOOD!!!!
Here is OPI's Shrek, which I have used before. And this two are great to compare one to another. Well, here I applied two coats and I should go even with the third one. The brushes from OPI I don't like as much as for example China glaze's, because it's just to big for me to handle. I made a big mess around my nails. The formula is runny and watery and it went all around my nails as soon as I applied it. So, another mess :-(
Here is the picture side by side on direct light (no, today is no sun) and the bottom picture is just on day light. As you see, both have cream finish and on first glance there is not a big difference between them. But I think Innocent has more yellow undertone than Shrek has more green on green color.
I like Innocent much more and as far as application goes, Innocent wins for me big time! Easier to use, drys out more quick and only with one coat you get much more color payoff. So, I think Shrek will go up for swap :-)
And which one is you favorite?

New Year's eve manicure feat. OPI BLACK SHATTER
Hi! Long time no read, a? Well, here I am, I'm back :-) Today I would like to present to you this amazing nail polish from OPI called Black shatter. As you see it has crackled effect! Awsome, right?
Last week I was in Ljubljana and I went to Muller and ofcourse I saw new polishes from OPI that I just couldn't passed by... And this one was the only one left so I bought it. This one was a bit expensive for my taste - 13€, but I'm not disappointed at all! It was worth buying it!
Well, as my base color I used China glaze- Millennium- plane silver color. It should be completly dry, before I used OPI, but as you see on the pictures, I was too fast with OPI application, so the crackles are also on my base color. So, I can't stress enough, you MUST wait to your base color is COMPLETLY dry, before you use any crackled nail polish.
Well, because I was too fast, this manicure is not so perfect as it should be, but oh well.... Here it is anyways! So, when your base color is dry, than you just apply OPI over it and wait for it to dry. And as it drys, the crakles appears! Simple as that! Than I just applied clear topcoat and this manicure was done!
But next time I'll wait that my base color will be completly dry and it will be much better. You'll see it in my next post :)

OPI Lincoln park after dark
About this polish was a lot of hipe going on. So i was really wondering what was so great about it. And yes, after using it, I got it! The hipe I mean :-) I didn't regret getting this one! I swapped some Eclipse polishes for this one and it was totally worth it.
I absolutely adore the color. As you see it's on the darker side of colors, it's almost black, but it's not :-) It's really deep rich purple with hints of dark red also. Love it! It's very vampy looking and I think it would look great with some konad design on it! What do you think?
I also love the formula, it's a little bit thicker than some of the OPI polishes I have, but that works great for me. You have to be carefull with application, because it can get really messy if you don't take some time applying it. I aslo like the brush, it's flat on two sides, so it's perfect to achieve three strokes application. I definetly recommend it!

OPI Ink suede
This polish was on my wishlist for a loong looong time and I finally got it :-) Offcourse trought swap with an amazing girl! :-) Well, I adore this polish, everything about it! The formula, the finish, the color- it's absolutly amazing!
The color of this one is very unique, purple with silver shine to it. As I said, it has matt finish. So you don't need to apply any top coat at all and it's dry in a matter of seconds! Amazing!
I love the brush of this polish, is flat and stiff, great for three strokes application. The formula is a little bit stricky, but the second coat takes care of it. I recommend this one a lot!
